I need to run JMeter in NON-GUI mode. GUI mode will not work for me. I created a JMeter test plan structured like this

  • enter image description here

I ran JMeter in NON_GUI mode with this command:

jmeter -n -t accessories.jmx -l C:\Users\YuC1\Desktop\output.csv

In the output.csv, only all the child samplers' results were included.

The problem for it is:

  • The result does not include parent sampler's name(transaction controllers), so I cannot analyse based on each transaction controller.

In a similar question on stackoverflow:

  • "JMeter: view Results Tree with parent and child samples after running in NON-GUI mode"

It is mentioned his/her problem for it was: it only included parent sampler results(which is what I wanted) without child samplers.

I think the solution should be in the jmeter.properties file, but I could not find the configuration to make it work.

In your plan, you checked "Generate Parent Sample" in Transaction Controller.

So when using CSV output as per your command line, in JMeter <= 4.0, only parent sample result will be output.

Note that your configuration is not advised to generate HTML Report:

Anyway, in upcoming JMeter 5.0, this will change and Child Samples will also be output as per:

You can try nightly build which is very close to what 5.0 will be as we are very close to releasing:
